New Year fishing report from Asuncion
the year is starting out oh so fine here in Asuncion. It's getting up to around 80 degrees, no wind, gorgeous days and evenings and big a$$ yellowtail
all over the place! We got lots of nomads hangin around, bajarat and his clan, birddog, tiomiguel, cisco, arturo plus the locals so we have been
having lots of BBQ's, campfires with reems of oysters, some dancing and lots of laughs.
Yesterday Stanibuns calls me to come down with my camera..holy smackin fish lips...he got a 41 and a 43 pound yellowtail...real fatties and he's one
happy guy!
Then Juan gets in with Birddog and Tiomiguel who all have fish over 30 pounds and one real honker who ends up beating out Stan's biggie...it weighs in
at 44.3 pounds...Denny's personal best ever!
Michelle reeled in a 42 pound fish herself...buff chick that she is!
And even tiomiguel managed to pull in some respectable fish.
Everybody enjoyed posing with the big fish, huge sashimi platters got devoured and when I went to bake one of the sides of fish, the dang thing
wouldn't even fit in our big oven!!!! yeah baby...good times in Asuncion!
sure is a great start to 2012!

We're having a drought year north of the border. That's why you're getting the great weather.

Shari, I am amazed both by the size of these fish and that the yellow tail fishing is still so good there into January. Had I known that, I might
have tried to plan our trip to Asuncion a few weeks sooner and planned to do some fishing (monster haulin) with Juan.
Oh well, I guess if we are real lucky I suppose there is a chance the yellow tail might still be around when we arrive in Asuncion in three weeks.
Either way we are looking forward to our visit to Asuncion.
Alan

Alan...there are big yellowtail around till the end of February so you may be hauling in one of these bad boys yet! Maybe it will be you who gets the
50 poundar!!!
The kids are having a blast surfing these days in front of your place too! It's gonna get to 12' tomorrow which will be spectacular...and get my
windows all salty.
We'll be visiting the gray whale nursery early next week and will let the whales know you are on your way too! Really look forward to seeing you.

Holy Cow! Everything a guy could ask for and here I am stuck in Margaritaville with a case of bronchitis. Oh well, I can only hope that the jurel
will hang around until March. See you all then.
